Research on seismic performance of traditional Chinese hall-style timber buildings in the Song and Yuan dynasties (960–1368 AD): a case study of the main hall of Baoguo Temple

open access: yesJournal of Wood Science, 2022
The hall-style timber frame built in the Song and Yuan dynasties (960–1368 AD) is one of the most important structural prototypes of the traditional timber architecture in East Asia. The current research, through a typical case of the main hall of Baoguo

Hygrothermal assessment of timber frame walls using a convolutional neural network

open access: yes, 2021
A correct design of a timbre frame wall's composition is vital to avoid moisture damage. Unfortunately, currently, no general guidelines exist to determine the most optimal wall composition in a specific context.

Traditional timber frame walls: mechanical behavior analysis and retrofitting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Timber frame construction is characteristic of several historic city centres as well as of vernacular architecture in several countries around the world, either motivated by the availability of materials and construction traditions or by the need of ...

Measurement of Moisture in Wood for Application in the Restoration of Old Buildings

open access: yesSensors, 2016
There are many historic buildings whose construction is based on timber frame walls. Most buildings built during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries were based on timber frame walls with vertical support elements. These timber frame elements are

Master Frame and Flat Floor-Timber: An ‘Architectural Signature’ of the Mediterranean Shipyards?

open access: yesHeritage, 2021
This article is an attempt to analyse the master frame form characterised by a flat floor-timber, a sharp or shaped turn of the bilge, and more or less straight sides.

Seismic behaviour of traditional timber frame walls: experimental results on unreinforced walls [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Timber frame buildings are well known as an efficient seismic resistant structure and they are used worldwide. Moreover, they have been specifically adopted in codes and regulations during the XVIII and XIX centuries in the Mediterranean area.

Hygrothermal behaviour of timber frame walls finished with a brick veneer cladding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this study, two typical timber frame walls with brick veneer cladding have been constructed at KU Leuven to investigate the hygrothermal response of these constructions in a moderate sea climate.

Analysis of timber frames with localized nonlinearities [PDF]

open access: yesFacta Universitatis. Series: Architecture and Civil Engineering, 2003
A methodology of nonlinear analysis of timber frame structures with flexible connections has been developed in this paper. The methodology is based on the results of experimental investigation of connections behavior under static and cycling loading. The
